Hello and greetings.
I could not decide where to post my thread , so I'm sorry if this is not the right place for it.
After I ran combofix I can not watch flash videos.I reinstalled the latest adobe flash plugin in firefox .
But there is no improvement.I did that many times, I tested even the beta flash plugins from abobe labs - same story.
It worked once, but after closing firefox I still can not watch flash.
How can I debug the problem to find out where the problem is?

This is my second question.
Is the file esihdrv.sys a driver that mebroot creates?A search on the web shows that a lot of people have it.
Some suggestions mention nod32 help driver.
I doubt it because it resides in a weird location - c:\docume~1\username\LOCALS~1\Temp\esihdrv.sys and it is hidden.
When I boot from cd - no such file exists.

Could this be a driver that it is being created every time the machine starts up and it is being destroyed when the pc goes off.
Or Combofix alarm is false positive.

Couple of things. ;)

Please do NOT run 'FIXES' (ComboFix etc) without being asked (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=16806 )
